Kristin's Article http://www.nytimes.com/2007/06/16/us/16swedenburg.html?_r=1&scp=3&sq=21st+amendment&oref=slogin This Article is about Juanita Swedenburg a winery and vineyard owner. She in 2005 won a battle in the US Supreme Court to tear down protecting barriers that kept wineries from shipping directly to buyers in other states. I disagree with the supreme court in this article. I think that winery owners should be able to ship there goods straight to other states. I feel like its goign back to the old in days when americans had to pay tax to England for shipping goods to other countires.

Kristine's article http://www.nytimes.com/2007/11/29/business/29bizcourt.html?_r=2&oref=slogin&oref=slogin This article is about how Maine wants to prevent under age kids from buying tobacco online. They want the delievers to verify the recipient age. I agree with this completly because if this action dosent take place then its just going to continue.
